In Uptown there have been a few accounts of them shooting their pecker off with their own gun in the pocket of their saggy jeans. One even had a whole in his foot and claimed he was shot by someone else.

Pretty eye opening .. so "victim shot himself while screwing around with his gun" perhaps BEFORE committing an attack/theft? And the other incidents are sobering, indicating armed thugs are in this hood .. scary. There'll be an uptick in legal carry .. no doubt.

On another front, we can at least take heart that the CPD is going to solve crime by going super high tech ..so, the neighborhood will surely qualify with the obvious current crime incident mapping, i.e.,

"create maps of the city that highlight “hotspots” for criminal activity".

After reading this DNAinfo article, I wonder if McCarthy thinks the crooks are as stupid as he appears to be. As they learn of the lack of a police presence and richer victims, predators will obviously move to richer and safer ground. Rahm, wake up! Send this creature from New Jersey Wives back home.

The only thing I'm full of is facts. I'm CPD. Are you? Citizens sometimes know that the $hithead they are calling about has a scanner/scanner ap and if they tell the operator that, dispatch will radio us and indicate they will be giving us a job via other means, which is not to say personal cellphones.
